Can you exchange tokens for other colors on your turn? I can't find this in the rules but the people I play with say you can. Also, can you exchange a token for a gold to reserve? Also is it true you can reserve a card from the draw pile? I saw this on some rules. TYIA!

Some people interpret the max gem rule to mean that you can exceed 10 as long as you finish with 10 after returning gems of their choice (not just some or all of your section choices during your turn). What say you?

I saw this being played and although the theme is a little dumb the game play looked pretty fun and strategic. Little pricy for what it is.

I saw this on a review site and it sounded ok. I just glanced through the game rules and it seems like learning how to play would be a bit challenging. Maybe I'm more of a quick card game type of person.
